My argument against this is that at least I own a license to the game rather than just a subscription. Steam still has and updates games that were made unpurchasable a decade ago. Hell, people still play rocket league on steam.

This is a separate argument altogether. Theres “own physically” and theres “own a license” to. If you own it physically and your physical media corrupts (which happens often to digital discs) did you own it any more than if you had it on steam? It’s also illegal to make a copy of a console disc, btw.

What the article is talking about is not even obtaining a license for at all and games just being attached to a subscription

I was just talking about that movie a few days ago

It started off alright, I was thinking “damn is this really a Michael Bay movie?”. It seemed like it wanted to ponder on the human condition and maybe do a bit of 1984-esque discussion on human rights, etc. Philosophical stuff that Bay isn’t known for

Then a big green Xbox advertisement, suddenly there are explosions and the people who have never even seen a car or motorcycle are doing high speed chases on the highway, so much action, etc.

It was such a jarring turn of events that it actually felt like the two parts of the films were made by two different people

Personally, I find it no different than how there are multiple websites and multiple forums on the internet. Reddit, stack exchange, other types of forums dedicated to specific topics, etc

You DONT need the “best” source of content, you don’t need to be connected to everyone, you don’t need to have access to all information all the time.

Ah, I missed this somehow when digging through the git page

Thank you

I’ve looked into Code Server, which is a github project I’ve found for self hosting VS Code, but it only works on Linux

Are you saying VS Code itself has a built in self hostable option?

I really have to thank you for an educated response

And that’s the issue I in particular have. It’s a double standard and not only that, they’re using it to generate money for their own tools

It’s not the same as some kid pirating photoshop to play around with, or a couple who is curious about GOT and want to watch it without paying HBO.

This is a separate issue and I hate that this place is so reddit like that trying to talk about it gets “hurrr dur I guess you’re mad because AI and meta are just the current hate train circle jerk hurrr i form my own opinions hurr”

Like, no, I’m upset because this is a whole new topic of piracy use.

Meta stealing intellectual property and utilizing it for corporate gain is not the same as normal users pirating content. They are so far apart that it warrants its own discussion and cannot be lumped in together.

That’s not the take away you should be having here, it’s that a mega Corp felt that they should be allowed to create new content from someone else’s work, both without their permission and without paying

My comment was more a rebuke at the headline than the article

Why would we have eyes on something that won’t be reasonably useful for years?

How many of your devices actually support this?

I think it’ll be 90% idiocracy and 10% Capitalist Star Trek

The guys making $32 a day on Chinese ships don’t get paid enough to care, that’s why it’s so easy to smuggle stuff to begin with.

They tried to gamify the process, you use gems to buy an off day for a streak

Fantastic recommendation, thank you

When they merged with iron source, many of the board from IS carried over. Of course the ad company wants to run the game engine company like an ad company

I thought it would operate like radarr and all I needed to to do was link it with ombi and send it requests.

Thanks
